Summary: Les auteurs ont rassemblé des données écologiques sur les oiseaux terrestres endémiques, les animaux introduits et les habitats. Avec la chasse et la destruction des habitats, les introductions de prédateurs ont joué un rôle majeur dans la régression et l'extinction de plusieurs espèces d'oiseaux. L'éradication rapide de ces prédateurs, associée à des re-introductions d'oiseaux, constituerait la manière la plus efficace pour assurer la survie des espèces restantes.
